I mean, they aren't wrong about the towns AFAIK, but the farmers are farmers everywhere, tory to the bone.
I think we need an updated version of "On the characteristics of kulak farms subject to the Labor Code" to explain this. The one I'm looking at lists ownership of "a complex machine with a mechanical motor" and I don't want to be gulag'd as a Tory farmer over my disk drives.

Goddamn, if that's what May's negotiations with the EU will look like, we're in for a rough time.

1. Announce that you have gotten something you haven't got from the other side

2. Walk into negotiations with the other side

3. Now have the choice of giving the other side whatever they want, or having to make a second announcement announcing that in fact you haven't got what you said you had and looking a total numpty

Comedy option of DUP asking them to ban gay marriage.

I would love to be a fly on the wall there, it'd be hilarious if Conservatives agree to whatever just because it'd be political suicide.
poo poo is getting crazy, eventually they will report on finding a hollow husk of Theresa May in a wheat field with a slime trail leading to a hole.

One of the most politically damaging, and also most likely to happen, might be a promise of lots more money and investment for Northern Ireland. Considering the threats of what would happen if Labour were propped up by the SNP they'd be eviscerated for it in Westminster.

I used to be a member of the Communist Party but their ineffectual bureaucracy and utter inability to exress any new thoughts really turned me off. That, plus doing a lot of reading about the Spanish experience of Anarcho-Syndicalism/libertarian-communism, and a real distate for leninism (which i had previously considered a necessary evil) pushed me over the edge about a year ago.
